The following is the report 6} tad]
Committee on Fertilizers of Orange
bur- Agricultural Society :
?? The (aunmittcc on Fertilizers after
careful reflection anil some experience;
would respectfully report the following:
grist. That Peruvian Guano with Land.
'Plaster in the proportion of one hundred
and fifty pound* of guano to fifty pounds
of plaster, is the bost application on stiff |
clay lands, especially where they have
been rested tlie previous your.
2d. That Diekson's Compound, on
light sandy laud-, applied ut the rate of j
four hundred pounds per ncro, is supe
rior to any used in their experience ; but
it is of great, importance to have vegeta
ble ma! .-r on the land, Ruch as would
grow on sandy lands after resting for
one year, by this means you secure pot
ash nu the laud which makes the Dick
sou's Compound almost a perfect .suc
cess.
3d. That 1-'actfir (iuano is also un ex
cellent fertilizer, and with* same" persons
has equalled the Diekson's Compound.
In Using nny of the fertilizers , gnv\t^ re
gard should be paid to the nature id* the
=8,t?.5L-iT/r.,' i" I ?? ? -
Mil !
We rec uniucnd that whctl planten; enn l
arrange it, they should plant oue-hnlf of j
their land one year and us* Diekson's
Compound at the rate ill" lour Hundred
pout Is per acre ; the year nfterw..rds to
lest t, and plant tlu: other half apply
ing tho same rjunnii y < f the Diekson's
Compound.
I.'y thus doing, n splomled coat of
weeds will he s^rnrcd. whi- h should he
turned notier, with a two lu-r.-c plough in
! the Full.
L , ti--M?:tv\ "\ vTt.ai k->v*-.?.
j By dividing the plantation into two
parts, we can pi. nt one half one year,
nnd the other half the next year, und
this will disnciisi*. in :i i?rent Mi.m???-0,?
with the hauling of trash mi the land, as
the land will make n heavy coat oF wecd>
where the Picksoi's Compound has heen
used the previous year.
All light simly land wants the. .soil
darkened, and thcr- "suo hotter way of
doing this titan Ly turning under it full
cotit of weeds, besides there-ir nsmlly a
great (leal of potash in (he weeds, so a-1
luirahly adapted to Dickson's Compound."
In regard to the Carolina Phosphates,
the Committee have had hut little expe
rience nnd would recuininend thrin in
combination with 1'cinviau ('uniio, one
third guano and two thirds phosphate.
Thoro arc a numher of Fertilizers worthy
the consideration ol* our planter*, and
wo hope by next year, they will he
thoroughly tested. We should by all
means patronize nur home made Fertiliz
ers if they are good. No pin liter should
plant cotton to any ox^nt without using
some Fertilizer as it has paid and will
pay well il properly used.
We rec umnend all Fertilizers to be
put six or eight inches in the ground
and thoroughly mixed in the soil by a
plough, by thus doing, it is placed in a
measure, beyond /he reach of the grasses
and the plant takes it up when it most
needs it.
In the prep ir iti )ii of lands for corn or ,
cotton they should be broken deeply ami
al'tet wards they should be cultivated rap
idly and lightly, excepting stiff clay
hinds, whon they have been beaten down
fro?l heavy rains, under such circum
stances they should be ploughed deep
cnOUgh to loosen the soil.
In conclusion wo would earnestly cull
the attention of the planters to vegetable
matter upon the soil. It .should bo ob-1
tinned in so o way, either by resting ?he
jdntj (if i.ai-iiu; ti,i.-h, such us oak I
loaves or pine straw half r tted. it will
act in many ways, to the benefit of the
luud and its growing crop. In still'clay
land it will open it, admitting the rays ol j
the sun und allowing the ruins tu pene
(rate deep, and it. will hold moisture bet
ter. In Sandy lands which are too po
rous it will tend to make them more com
^pact.
Fire should never be allowed to de
stroy the grass or weeds on land, but
they should lie ploughed nnder nnd al
lowed to rot

gre .t doM has h^cn said of late on the
subject of the increase of wages. It i.-,
claimed that wages are not high enough,
ami that laboring men are iiiai'fequatef}
paid for their Ffrtfttt. " l'irSrTrll? eases,
this is doubtless the fact ; but as a gen
eral rule, we are inclined to think that
good work will yield good wage.". Hence,
we say. if you desire to increase the rate
of wage-, the first thing to do, is give
more work. flood work will always cam
inand gonj pay. The writer of this
article recently employed four laboring
men?Scotch men?who have just ar
rived in the State. We do not exagge
rate when we say, that thus far, thev
perform about three times as'much work
as the laborers here generally do, and
tiny do it far better. Tin ?so mou are
worth three times as much as those, and
they 'will get it. just so soon as their
working qualifies become known. Hence,
we say to all ? high and low?-rich or
[ Ooi?tnental'y or physically?if you
w'atit increase of pay, first increase your

TlIK ruiNTJ.NO Ok VICB I? A SCHOOL.
For a young man who is not altogether
a fool, who has bad tbo advantages
of an ordinary education, tho printing
office is undoubtedly a capital school for
intellectual advancement. In regard to
general knowledge, no class who labor
for a living can approach the printer.
The stodious among them, if their uatu
ral gifts be not below the 1 evel of medio
crity, have equal chances with the
membeis of the so culled professions,
to acquire both worldly honors aud
literary fumo. From the days of Cuxlon
to those of Franklin, and from bis days
to our own, the craft has produced
eminent men in profession and every
walk J'lifc.
A printer is generally a critic, not
only of language und punetuutiou, but
of the intrinsic literary merits of whatever
comes under his band. It is impossible
that be should be otherwise, since so
great a part of bis life is made up, as
it were, of facts that ouloreo reflection.
The labor that employs bis hands gives!
bis mind neither exercise nor care, j
His fingers move intuitively to the exact
points requisite for the proper uppoiut
tnent of Jlis work, while his mind seizes
the idea sought to be conveyed by the
writer whoso work be is engaged o> , and
is only expelled therefrom after hisjudg
mcnt has passed sentence ujiou its merits.
Many a one. without knowing if
possibly owes sonic unknown compositor
or proof reader much more reputation as
a Writer tn?n be would be Willing to
acknowledge. If by changing of a sen
tence without affecting its meaning, be
can giv_. it strength br smoothness, us
a good printer be asks no questions1 about
the matter but changes it at once.
There nro sonic printers, it is true,
who carl never loam tbo plainest rulo of
composition or punctuation. To such a
one might we use the identical words
spoken by a well known divine, spending
to a young, but particularly silly candi
date for ministerial orders; -Young
man, you have'made a mistake; you have
boon called to Smother?the cornfield."
Laihiu is (?km us.?When a lady
once asked Turner, the celebrated Eug
li.-h journalist, what his secret was, bo re
plied : "I have no secret, madam, but
hard work." This is a -cere; that many
never learned, and don't learn it. Labor
is the genius that changes the world iVem
ugliness to beauty, and the gtoatcst curse
to a great blessing.
American Slaw.?The utter igno
rance of tho English of Jfto ?Ignlficntiort
of Amoricjuj slang expressions, often
causes sonic curious Heenes between them
and Yankee bnyers in England, who
seem to think that because their lau
guago gcuornlly is understood, all their
American idioms will bo. An expert
buyer, junior partner in one of our large
American firms, nt a recent visit to his
correspondent in au English mam -
fueturing city, was complimented by
the senior partner cd" tho house, who
insisted on personally showing goods to
his American purchaser.
' There, air," said Dowhis, throwing
out a roll of goods, "what do you think
ofthat?"
,lO, that's played out," said the Ame
rican, ii
"It's what?" said Hull.
"It's played, I tell you," said his cus
torher,; ., ?? , , ; in rnWt of;?tf*
"Played?ah! rcally*-wc call it phid,
h'ynr in England, but this Un't plaid?
plad. you know.
"No," said the Yapkec, '1 dont menu
plad. I mean ter say,'it's gone up.'"
'?Oh, no," said the Britisher- "not at
all; it has not gone up?quite tho con
trary. We've taken off from the price "
"Over the left; its three pence too
high, uo.v." , ...j.
'?No doubt of it, but our neighbors,
you know, on the left arc not manufac
turers, you know."
... .... . ? - . ? ' i'
"\ cry likely; but I don t care to be
'stuck,' when I get home."
"Really, most extraordinary. Is it as
dangerous in New York as the news pa
pers say?"
'? Yes, but 1 don't want these goods.
I've got some already that will knoek
the spots out of'em. "
' Hut, my dear, there's ho spots on the
goods, I assure yah. They are perfect."
"Well, well; suppose we "switch off
on these goods nnd try something else.".'
-Certain')!" and the Englishman, to
the infinite amusement of tho Ameri
can's friend,culled a clerk, with a vi.q?
broom, and directed him to -'switch oUM
any dust he could find, while he procccd
to show something else,
'?'/here," Slid tho Englishman, tri
umphantly spreading out another'fabric,
"there's the handsomest piece of goods
in England, 'arf a guinea yard."
"I can't see it," said his customer.
"Can't see it !" Why, you uro looking
straight at it. However, suppose you try
the light of this window."
? No; I don't menu that," said the
American. "I haven't got the stamps
for such goods."
'"Stamps !" no stamps required hut a
bill stamp, which wo are happy to fur
nish."
This misunderstanding might hayo
continued longer, had not one of the
younger-members of tho house, seeing
his senior's perplexity, rescued the Ame
rican and "put him through" alter the
manner of his couutrymcu.
